A request from Cannon &Cannon, Inc. to build a trafficsignal at the intersection ofKingston Pike and Virtue Roadreceived a unanimous vote ofapproval during the town ofFarragut Board of Mayor andAldermen meeting Thursday,Aug. 13.
Cannon & Cannon issued therequest to Town engineer DarrylSmith. The lump sum fee for theengineering services would cost$13,500.
Cannon and Cannon also pro-vided a traffic signal design andschedule that would allow a sub-mittal of plans to TDOT forreview within six weeks.
“For several years, staff hasmonitored the operation of theintersection at Kingston Pikeand Virtue Road,” Smith said.“That’s one of my pet projectsbecause that’s the way I go everyday. We made a request to installa signal several years ago at thisintersection and at that time theintersection the [Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices]and [Tennessee Department ofTransportation] felt it was not astrong enough argument at thattime and wanted us to simplywait until traffic grew to thepoint that a signal would be war-ranted.
“Earlier this year, we hadanother warrant analysis doneand it now meets at least threeof the warrants and TDOT hasagreed to allow us to install a sig-nal at Kingston Pike and VirtueRoad.
“I won’t say that there’ll be asignal up there in six weeks, butcertainly plans have been sub-mitted, it still takes time, it willbe TDOT’s review, we will puttogether a contract, bid formsthat Cannon & Cannon can pro-vide us. It’ll be sometime in thenext several months.”
The MUTCD identifies eighttraffic signal warrants as: eighthours vehicular volume, four-hour vehicular volume, peakhour, pedestrian volume, schoolcrossing, coordinated signal sys-tem, crash experience and road-way network.
Traffic signal planned for Pike at Virtue Road

According to Smith, Saturday,Aug. 8, was a perfect example forwhy the intersection needed atraffic signal.
“Saturday afternoon mighthave been a perfect time to bedriving through there,” Smithsaid. “There’s currently about
4,500 vehicles per day on Virtueat that location. Peak hours arevery heavy. The left turn move-ment is very difficult there any-way — left turn from VirtueRoad onto Kingston Pike headedwestbound — but there’s a veryheavy movement from west-
bound Kingston Pike ontoVirtue. Left turn movements isusually where you have yourworst accidents.
“There have been accidents,but the potential for accidents

Rezoning request in BOMA hands after FMPC vote■ TAMMY CHEEK
Proponents and opponents of arequest to rezone 22 acres northof Farragut Church of Christ offSmith Road and north of Kings-ton Pike at Peterson Road forapartments will have to wait fora Farragut Board of Mayor andAldermen decision next month.
Farragut Municipal PlanningCommission, during its meetingThursday, Aug. 20, voted 6-2against recommending approvalof a request to rezone the prop-erty from R-2, general single-family home residential, to R-6,multi-family residential.
Commissioners Ed Whitingand Annette Brun voted in favor
of the rezoning while Commis-sioners Noah Myers, Betty Dick,Ed St. Clair, Louise Povlin, MayorRalph McGill and ChairwomanRita Holladay opposed thechange.
Commissioner and Ron Honk-en was absent.
Continental Properties Com-pany, Inc. has an option to buythe land from Horne PropertiesInc. and is proposing to buildelite, upscale apartments, target-ing young professionals andempty-nesters on the parcels.
Mark Shipley, FarragutCommunity Development direc-tor, said Continental withdrewits original rezoning request inJune. It has since obtainedmore acreage and submitted a
new request. “They had 19.5 [acres] in the
original,” Shipley said. “Theyhave 22 here that has allowedthem to increase the buffer,lower the density from 12 to 10units per acre.”
He said changes include anincreased buffer to the north,lower density, a little moreacreage and the club house beingmoved closer to Kingston Pike.
“Philosophically, I am notagainst the idea of apartmentsbeing developed in this area,”Povlin said. “The Future LandUse Plan certainly allows for con-sideration of such.”
However, she added, shethinks the Continental develop-ment should be restricted to
nine units.“We selected this site because
the Land Use Plan identifies thisproperty as medium density resi-dential,” John Minahan, directorof Multifamily Acquisitions withContinental Properties Com-pany, Inc., said.
Minahan added the Commis-sioners could put a condition onthe density.
“I believe the rezoning isappropriate in this area,” saidWhiting, who made the motion torecommend approving the rezon-ing. “Particularly, because if it isnot done, the Town Center con-cept, our No. 1 priority, has failed.”
Shipley said the zoningrequest still has to go before theFarragut Board of Mayor and
Aldermen for approval. The earliest the matter could
come before the Board is Sept.10.
For a little more than twohours, individuals for and againstthe project addressed density,traffic and property values; butthe main point was whether therezoning would be consistentwith the Town’s ComprehensiveLand Use Plan.
Michael Wilson, a BaldwinPark resident and spokesman forFarragut Citizens for Respon-sible Growth, said the rezoningfails to protect existing neighbor-hoods, does not provide for con-nectivity of streets and is not

The town of Farragut took onestep closer to its downtown area,Thursday, Aug. 13.
Farragut Board of Mayor andAldermen voted in favor of arequest that would change anoffice/industrial area to a MixedTown Use Center and expand itsuse.
The property is located west ofVillage Veterinary MedicalCenter and east of the formerPhillips 66 gas location off thecorner of Kingston Pike and N.Campbell Station Road. Com-munity Development directorMark Shipley provided theFuture Land Use Map during hisdiscussion, which was reviewedby the Farragut Municipal
Planning Commission beforeThursday, Aug. 13.
“This request obviously wouldexpand the use of the MixedTown Center,” Shipley said. “Itdoes not include the green area[on the future land use map].That’s open space. Area that’sbasically floodway that’s not partof this development. This partic-ular request was also reviewedby the Planning Commission inJuly. They recommended unani-mously to amend Future LandUse Map to change the areathat’s identified as Office/LightIndustrial to Mixed Use TownCenter so that the plan would beconsistent with the upcomingrequest to rezone property to theTown Center District.”
Rezoning the property, whichthe Board adopted by ordinance
was part of the Town’s process ofmaking a downtown area for theTown of Farragut. Otherwise, it’dbe a Farragut Municipal Plan-ning Commission matter.
“Normally these kind ofamendments would be handledsolely by the Planning Commis-sion since the plan was adoptedonly by resolution,” Shipley said.“However, as you may recall, afew months ago, the Board ofMayor and Aldermen adopted, byordinance, the area identified asthe Mixed Use Town Center inthe Comprehensive Use Plan tohelp us in our goal to bring abouta downtown. So any modifica-tions that are made, whetheryou’re adding or deleting areasfor all the mixed use town cen-ter, do have to come before youas ordinance for approval.”

Peirson Meyer Russian River Pinot Noir 2013Over the past few vintages this Russian River Pinot has developed itsown signature style. Ripe red cherry and black cherry notes add a beau-tiful fruit component to deeper aromas of orange tea, sandalwood, andfresh mint. The palate is seamless and impeccable, amazingly warm andinviting.We sampled this wine with Robbie Meyer while in Napa Valley lastmonth and it drank like candy in a glass. Candied fruit flavors aboundwith deep, robust finish of red and black cherries. It is not yet rated butthe prior vintage got 94 points from Wine Advocate.

CopsFrom page 2A
• In the Aug. 20 farragutpresspolice reports is this statementabout shoplifting at Kohl’s: “Acitation wasn’t issued becausethe suspects lived out of KnoxCounty and have a history ofshoplifting.” What does thatmean? If you live elsewhere andare a career criminal, you get apass?Editor’s Note: No, the suspectswere arrested, not cited.
• My issue today is the Kohl’s[department store off KingstonPike in Farragut] shopliftingissue. I continually read aboutshoplifters at Kohl’s. Why don’t
they hire two security guards —one at each entrance — thatmay solve the shoplifting. Haveyou been to Ross [departmentstore in Turkey Creek]? Theyhave a security guard there andthey are never having issues withshoplifting. I am also concernedabout the holidays comingaround the corner with shoplift-ing increasing.

Women’s, girls’ styles mingle at The Bubblegum Boutique ■ TAMMY CHEEK
Little girls’ clothing andwomen’s apparel mingle togetherat The Bubblegum Boutique, anew store in Turkey Creek.
Erin Scoggins, owner, openedBubblegum Boutique Wednesday,July 8, at 11688 Parkside Drive.
“We do have baby gifts for littleboys, but pretty much, we aregeared to women and little girls,”Scoggins said. “We also have jew-elry and accessories.
“You can buy an outfit for yourlittle girl while you are shoppingfor yourself,” she said.
A Dayton native, Scoggins was anurse before she ventured intothe retail business.
“I went to Omaha, Neb., for anursing program,” she said. “Istayed out there for six years, butthree years ago, I got into retail onthe side.” She would work as anurse and then in retail on herdays off.
“I moved into a co-op with dif-ferent vendors, and I was able tostart with a small space,” she said.“I would do events, little pop-upboutiques and craft stores.”
However, Scoggins said her fam-ily wanted her to return to Dayton,so she decided to open a store inTennessee.
“I just did my research and
thought a boutique in this end ofTurkey Creek would be good.
“There’s not a lot of little girls’clothes in this area,” Scogginssaid. “It’s a pretty good women’sarea to be. There’s the [I Love]Juice Bar and GiGi’s Cupcakes, soI thought this would be a good lit-tle spot.”
The name, “bubblegum,” wasinspired by her experiences inmission work.
“I noticed on my numerous mis-sion trips the children loved gumand candy,” she said. “I like to giveout bubblegum during missionwork, and, at special events, I liketo hand out gumballs to the kids.”
Scoggins continues to take partin mission work.
”I decided to give back to thewomen’s hospital I spend timeworking in Naivasha, Africa,”Scoggins said. So, for every pur-chase in the store, a newborn atthe Naivasha Women’s Hospitalwill receive an item of need, shesaid.
The store is open from 10 a.m.to 7 p.m., Monday through Fridayand from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.Saturdays. It is closed on Sunday.
For more information on TheBubblegum Boutique, call 865-288-0733, visit online at The BubblegumBoutique.com or facebook.com/TheBubblegumBoutique.

As the parent of a youngchild, I can easily fall into theparenting comparison trap.This is especially true becausemy husband and I have a tight-knit extended family with sev-eral kids near our daughter’sage. I also find that scrollingthrough Facebook andInstagram leaves me subject tothe comparison trap becauseseveral of our friends haveyoung kids, and darn it, thosekids are almost as cute as ourown child.
The comparison trap is realbecause we want to know thatour child is doing well, and wewant only the best for our kids.And let’s face it - we want ourkids to be the best, cutest,smartest, most successful childout there. We don’t mean tocompare our child to ourfriends’ children, but it hap-pens more often than we wantto admit. Oftentimes we haveto consciously work not tocompare our child to kids inthis digitally connected worldwhere cute pictures, videos,and quotes are more rampantthan videos of cute cats.
Some of the comparisons wemake are superficial and cause
minor (or major, in somecases) stress. However, somecomparisons are important.There is a reason the doctorasks us to bring our childrenin and mark the check boxesfor the activities/accomplish-ments our child has attained.My doctor wants me to bringmy daughter in at least once ayear to make sure she is physi-cally developing as expectedand emotionally/cognitivelydeveloping as other childrenher age. If we did not com-pare her to the expected pathfor a child her age, we mightmiss the opportunity to takeaction to get her on righttrack. We also might miss apotential medical issue.
A similar trap happens to allof us as investors. While wemight not see our friends’financial success splashedacross social media, we do seeevidence of it in pictures offun vacations, new homes, lav-ish birthday parties and newcars. We might assume that inorder to do and have all ofthat, their portfolio must beout-performing ours.
We naturally compare ourportfolios to what we see
online because we want ourinvestments to hit the highnumbers and grow. If we feelthat our performance doesn’tcompare, many of us experi-ence high levels of stress. This is not the trap we should fall into.
If we are to compare ourportfolios to anything, weshould compare them to a per-sonalized “Family Index”which is an investment plantailored to our own familygoals and money values. Arewe on track to be able to dowhat we want to do? If not,what changes can be made toget us back on path? Just likethe doctor check-up helps usidentify and/or diagnose issueswarranting change for our chil-dren, a financial check-upusing our “Family Index” asthe benchmark helps us knowwhat action is needed. This istruly the only comparison thatmatters.

Turkey Creek’s UT Alumni Hall unveils Nike merchandise■ ANTHONY ELIAS
A week after The University ofTennessee became an officialNike school on Wednesday, July1, one Turkey Creek store hasalready seen the sponsor’simpact.
“We’ve gotten a lot of phonecalls [and] had a lot of peopletravel from out of state just tocome and shop [for] Nike;Georgia, Alabama, those kind ofplaces,” Turkey Creek’s AlumniHall store manager BethanyFlickinger said.
Two of Flickinger’s cus-tomers, Holly Moore and herdaughter, Darby — both out-of-town shoppers from Athens,Ala. — were passing throughThursday, July 8, while visitingfamily in Sweetwater and decid-ed to stop in; the stores neartheir home had very little NikeUT merchandise to choose from.
“We’re near Giles County [in]Pulaski,” Moore said. “Theycarry just a few pieces [of mer-

another location in the future. El Paraiso Tienda Hispana is
Blanco’s first store in America,although he did work in a gro-cery store in Honduras. Hemoved to the United States in2008.
“My dad gave me the opportu-nity to come here to work,”Blanco said, adding his fatheralready is a U.S. citizen.
The store is open from 10 a.m.to 9 p.m. Monday throughFriday.

chandise] but very little. Sowhen we come to visit, we try toload up.”
The Athens natives wereexcited about last week’s UT-Nike unveil; the partnership isquite a convenience for them.
“We were excited; we likeNike,” Holly said. “That’s whatmy children prefer to wear so wewere glad that Tennessee wasgoing to be sponsored by Nike.”
Cindy Fox and Michelle Flattwere nearby in The Pinnacle atTurkey Creek area when theydecided to stop by and check outthe new Nike gear. The twofriends saw the UT-Nike unveil-ing and the helmets caught theireyes.
“I liked it; I thought they did agood job,” Fox said. “I thoughtthe grey helmets with the moun-tains looked good.”
“Yeah, we like the grey hel-mets,” Flatt said, agreeing withFox.
They had no preference toAdidas or Nike, but Fox doeshave a Nike fan in her family.
“My son is all about Nike,”Flatt said.
UT signed an eight-year, $35million apparel contract withthe global brand based inBeaverton, Ore., on Jan. 31,2014, making Nike the officialsponsor; UT will receive a $2 mil-lion signing bonus over the nexteight years as part of the agree-ment. Tennessee’s partnershipwith Nike officially began onJuly 1; UT joined Arkansas,Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU,Missouri, Ole Miss andMississippi State as Nike-spon-sored SEC teams.
Shipments arrived earlyThursday morning at the TurkeyCreek Alumni Hall and — eventhough her store’s had plenty ofvisitors before the unveil —Flickinger has noticed Nike’simpression on the Tennessee fanbase.
“Everyone’s been really excit-ed about the switch to Nike,”Flickinger said.

Knoxville Catholic High School senior Briston Maroney spent part of his summer vacation teach-ing guitar lessons to residents of Benin, Africa. Maroney, who appeared on American Idol earlierthis year, will soon release a compact disc of original material.
■ KEN LAYCorrespondent
Briston Maroney isn’t happy ifhe’s not making music and soon,his music will be out for everybodyto enjoy.
Maroney, a 17-year old studentat Knoxville Catholic High School,will release a compact disc of orig-inal material. The release datewasn’t known at press time butMaroney said that he hoped thealbum would be available in late-August.
“We’re going to have a releaseparty at the Open Chord [a con-cert venue on Kingston Pike inBearden], when it comes out,”Maroney said of the untitledalbum. “We’ve had about 10 ideasfor a title but we haven’t settledon one yet.”
Maroney appeared on Fox’sAmerican Idol earlier in 2015 andsaid that was his first experiencein the real music business.
“That was a good experience forme,” he said of his time on televi-sion. “It was the first real experi-ence that I had in the music busi-ness. It was my first chance to seehow the music business reallyworks.
Although he’s young, Maroneycites some musical heavyweightsas his primary influences. He’s aprolific singer-songwriter and listshis major musical influences asBob Dylan and Jack White.
“I really like Jack White,”Maroney said. “But I think if I had
to say I looked up most to, it wouldbe Bob Dylan because of thediverse musician he is. Jack Whiteis also a super diverse artist.
Maroney is diverse in his onright and by his own admission.When asked to classify his work,the 17-year old who has writtensongs with some of Nashville’spremiere songwriters said “That’sa good question.
“I write what comes naturally tome,” he added. “I write folk, rootsrock and Americana music. I lis-ten to music that’s popular todaybut I also listen to stuff that’s notall that popular today.”
Maroney may struggle to identi-fy the genre of his work but heknows that his music is honestand comes straight from his heart.
“Music is my form of communi-cation,” he said. “It’s my chance torelate to people.
“It’s a way for me to reach out topeople. It’s the most relatablething that I have.”
He noted that he also feels asense of responsibility to his workand fans.
“In music, no matter what youplay; you have to be honest,”Maroney said. “The best thing Ifeel like I can do as a musician isto be honest. An audience issmarter than most people thinksit is.”
During his young life, Maroneyhas played shows at the SquareRoom on Market Square. There,

expensive anymore that for thekids that participated in RedBooks, then we wanted toreward them with somethingand we felt like this would be agreat thing for them to have.”
Grace, who is about to startfourth grade at Farragut Inter-mediate School, is one of about30 Farragut Park children nowwith well-supplied backpacksheading into the school year.

According to Nussbaum, DenaCunningham — FCC’s churchsecretary who couldn't makeTuesday's visit to Farragut Parkafter her mother passed away —“collected all the books”, “organ-ized the Farragut CommunityChurch” and "put together allthe prizes” in FCC's summerbook program.”
“Dena Cunningham is ourchurch secretary,” Nussbaumsaid. “She runs the library at ourchurch and she does this greatsummer program for the kids
where they get prizes for readingso many books and/or pages andit worked out really well and welove it so much.
“But we wanted the communi-ty to be involved also and fellinto a snafu of people [who]couldn't come to our building sowe immediately looked at eachother and said, ‘We'll go tothem.’”
Before the donations, FCC vol-unteer Kathy Henry read “TheTeacher From The BlackLagoon” to the Farragut Parkchildren.
“I liked the story,” Grace said,“because it's kind of like aboutthe school year and, like, you'restarting it and so that's why Iliked it.”

When you see a photo of a well-ordered clothes closet, are youinspired to have an organizedcloset?
What you wear takes up a lot ofyour energyand whenyour closetis consti-pated withstuff youdon’t wear(for what-ever rea-son), itbecomes ag i g a n t i cI P O D(ImportantPile ofDecisions).Your closetis just like your garage if your caris parked in the drive-way.
What might surprise you is thepile of decisions isn’t a bunch ofvarious decisions like when youhave to file papers into a filingcabinet, because 90% of the stuffyou’re not making decisionsabout just needs to go! Good-bye,ciao, ta ta, Cheerio, fairwell!
I’ve been helping people getthe spark and motivation todeclutter for almost 40 years andhave come up with some very cre-ative and fun ways to give youthat spark. This one I’ll call
Operation Pity Trip.Let’s GoHopefully I can get you to get
into character for this de-junkingproject (your inner child will loveit). Set the timer for 15 minutesand pretend you’re very poor andyou have to pack for a trip to somehorrible place like Siberia. (Ireally don’t know if Siberia is thatawful, I just know, in the movies,people get sent there as a punish-ment.)The whole point of this isto get into that character.
Get a garbage sack (you’re toopoor to have a suitcase) and gointo your closet and start packingfor the trip. It’s a pity trip andyou’ll need to look awful whileyou’re there, so you’ll needclothes that are too tight (they’llalways make you look pathetic)out of style and worn. Pick outaccessories, jewelry, shoes, etc.that do the same thing. Makecomplete outfits. (You could putan outfit on and take a pitiful self-ie just for the fun of it.)
Oh yes, don’t forget toiletries.Look under the sink for some bot-tles and jars of stuff you neversmear on yourself anymore. Forsure they’ll be perfect for whereyou’re going. And while you’re atit, check out your book shelves forbooks you never read and maga-zines you’ve thought you’d read
someday but won’t. See if you canfill the garbage bag in 15 minutes.
When you pack for a real trip,you pack the clothes you reallylike and that fit you now andmake you feel good. That’s a clueto what you need to have hangingin your closet. I don’t know atwhat point our closets becomeholding tanks for clothes andaccessories we’ll never wearagain. The clothes you wore tenyears ago are not only not in style,you’ve changed and no doubt yourpreferences have changed, not tomention other things. Why haveclothing cramming your closetthat you’d never take on a trip?It’s kind of silly don’tchathink?
When you’re all packed for yourpity trip, it’s important that youfollow through with the expedi-tion. No, you’re not going toSiberia, but you are going to driveto a donation center. As soon asyou dump off the bag, I promiseyou’ll feel great about what you’veaccomplished!

“After that show, I was invitedto go down to Nashville and thatwas a great experience,” Maroneysaid.
Then the chance came torecord an album that will likely bein stores next month.
Maroney said that the record-ing process was tedious butrewarding.
“When you’re recording, youspend more time waiting thananything else,” he said. “You don’thave the energy that you haveplaying live. I prefer playing livebut recording this album was themost fun that I’ve ever had inmusic.
“We were all on the same page.I’m excited and I just can’t waitfor everyone to get to hear it. Iknow that it’s a fine line betweenhyping this thing and being excit-ed. But I’m excited.

POWELL — Farragut HighSchool opened the 2015 season indominant fashion at Powell HighSchool’s Scarbro Stadium Fridaynight.
“I challenged our kids to com-pete,” Admirals’ coach EddieCourtney said after his teamnotched an impressive 49-6 victo-ry over the Panthers. “Our kidshave worked hard.
“We’ve had two really goodweeks of practice and they need-ed this. They needed somethingpositive to happen.”
Farragut (1-0) flexed its muscleearly as it scored on four of itsfirst five possessions.
Defensively, Justin Kirkendallhad three first-half interceptionsthat set up three touchdown runsby senior running back TannerThomas.
“It’s good for us to get off to agod start,” said Kirkendall, whohad just one interception all oflast season. “We really neededthis as a team.
“Our whole defense was flyingaround the ball, and it justallowed me to be there at theright time.”
The Ads opened the scoringmidway through the first quarter
when senior quarterback JacobNaumoff connected with ColeMorgan on a 28-yard scoringstrike with 6 minutes, 13 secondsremaining in the opening quarter.Naumoff opened his game with anincompletion but completed hisnext passes on the game’s open-ing drive.
“I was a little nervous cominginto thegame andthat’s whythat firstpass sailed on me,” Naumoff said.“It feels great to come out hereand get this win.
“Our offense and our defenseboth played so good tonight,”
Courtney agreed.“I thought we were productive
on both sides of the ball,” he said.“We made some mistakes but thisis week one, so we can correctthose mistakes.”
On the Panthers’ next posses-sion, Farragut forced the hometeam to go three and out.
The Admirals then had aturnover but Powell (0-1)returned the favor whenKirkendall picked off ConnerSepesi.
The Powell miscue later set upan 11-yard touchdown dash byThomas. Carter Phillipy’s extrapoint extended the Admirals’
advantage to 14-0 with 49 secondsleft in the opening frame.
Thomas had three more touch-downs in the second stanza. Twoof those were results ofKirkendall’s defensive work.Thomas’ scoring runs in the framecame from 22, 5 and 3 yardsrespectively.
The senior had a dazzling effortbut didn’t take much credit forhis stellar game.
“I know that this sounds like acliché’ but all the credit has to goto my offensive line,” Thomassaid. “They worked their tails off.
“We played well both offensive-ly and defensively and this feelsgreat. Any time you can get a winin the opener, it’s good.”
Courtney, Farragut’s longtimehead coach, lauded Thomas forhis humility.
“He’s very unselfish,” Courtneysaid of his running back. “Hewants the team to do well.
“He worked hard to get thosetouchdowns and he’s fine as longas he wins.”
Thomas rushed for more than100 yards and only played in theopening half and helped the Adsopen a 42-0 halftime lead.
Naumoff closed out the first-half scoring when he threw a 56-

“We had a boat-load of mis-
takes but our kids had an effortthat was just fantastic againstthe top [Class 5A] team in thestate.”
The Hawks had a plethora ofmiscues, including three lostfumbles, a bad snap thatresultedin a safe-ty for thedefend-ing Class 5A State Champions.Hardin Valley also missed apair of extra points, surren-dered a touchdown on a puntreturn and had a touchdownnullified by a penalty.

Jones scores 4 TDs, Bearden
wins 50-7
■ ANTHONY [email protected]
The Karns Beavers didn’t havean answer for Cameron Jones.
The Bearden quarterback went12-for-18 and passed for 203 yardsand two touchdowns in theBulldogs 50-7 win Friday, Aug. 21.
Jones said he had plenty of timein the pocket because of his muchimproved offensive lineman.
“I felt a lot comfortable,” Jonessaid. “Our linemen are getting alot better. They know their assign-ments and that's what we needout of our offensive line. We got abig offensive line that can carryour team a lot this year. I think wecan pull out some victories withour offensive line that we have.”
The Bulldogs [1-0] have pulledout a winning record early in theseason for the first time since2012 and two straight wins, buthead coach Morgan Shinlever saidhe believes Jones deserves morecredit than that.
“He kind of got a little bit of abad rep last year,” Shinlever said,“but the fact is the kid had the tal-ent. We just had to put him in theright situations and coach him upand that's what we've been doingall year in the preseason and, youknow, it was just a matter of timebefore he came out and peoplestarted recognizing who he is. Buthe had a good night tonight. Hedid it both with his arms and hislegs and he did it with his mind.”
Jones mind was focused themoment he grabbed the ball. Afterthe Bulldog defense forced twoturnovers, Jones capitalized, lead-ing the Bulldogs down the field on
two of the three Bulldogs scoringdrives in just over six minutes. Thefirst he ended with an 18-yardpass to Skyler Hammett, then setup Jacquez Dove on a screen passthat turned into a 65-yard sprintfor six. Before Karns knew it, theBulldogs were up 20-0 with over am i n u t eleft in thefirst.
In thesecond half, Jones was still able tofind the end zone. The Beardenquarterback rushed for 39 yardsand scored on two quarterbackkeepers, including a 38-yardscramble on third-and-24 with 7seconds left in the third quarter,giving the Bulldogs a 50-7 lead andKarns its third game with 50 pointsallowed in a four-game span.
Karns head coach Tobi Kilgorewasn’t pleased with the Beavers [0-1]. Five turnovers resulted in 35Bearden points, but the Beaverscoach still credited Bearden’s turn-around from a year ago.
“Don’t take any credit awayfrom Bearden,” Kilgore said.“Coach Shinlever and his staff’sdone an excellent job. The factthat that team was 1-9 last yearand the way that they’ve improvedtonight, all the credit in the worldto those guys, but right now wecan’t beat anybody.
I’ll be totally honest with you,we can’t go in there and beat ourmiddle school team with the mis-takes we made tonight, so we’vegot to get better next week.”
The Bulldogs look to continueits winning streak in its homeopener with Powell Friday, Aug.28, at 7:30 p.m.

MARYVILLE — Bearden HighSchool’s girls soccer team hasgrown to love playing Maryville inBlount County. It was there thatthe Lady Bulldogs opened the2015 campaign with a 4-1 win overthe host Lady Red RebelsSaturday night at John SevierElementary School.
It was the second consecutivetime that Bearden (1-0 overall, 1-0in District 4-AAA) have spoiled ahome match for the Lady RedRebels on hostile turf.
The Lady Bulldogs endedMaryville’s season there last yearin the district tournament semifi-nals. That loss was Maryville’s lonesetback of 2014.
The Lady Bulldogs receivedsome stellar goalkeeping fromsenior KayLee Wentz Saturdaynight. Wentz saved 14 of 15 qualityshots that she faced from a youngbut talented and potent Maryvilleteam, which dropped to 1-1 overalland 0-1 in the district.
“We had some opportunities buttheir keeper made some bigsaves,” Lady Red Rebels’ coachBill Stooksbury said. “I was proudof our effort, but their keeper,combined with our lack of finish-ing ability was why they won thegame.”
Wentz made a couple of hugesaves when the game’s outcomehung in the balance. She madeone point-blank shot and thwart-ed another Maryville chance whenshe calmly punched the ball overthe crossbar.
“She’s gotten a lot better,”Bearden second-year coach RyanRadcliffe said of Wentz, who final-ly gave up a marker in the 76thminute off the foot of Emma Rice.“I challenged all of our keepersbefore thegame andI thinkwhen theother ones saw her make thosesaves, it made them relax andrealize that they can make thosesaves to.”
The Lady Bulldogs, who man-aged just six shots on frame in theentire match, scored on four ofthem.
Junior forward Taylor Frizengave the visitors a 1-0 lead in the21st minute when she banged theball past Maryville senior netmin-der Rachel Broyles and into theback of the Lady Red Rebels’ net.
Maryville, which had thechance to jump out to an earlylead if not for the effort of Wentz,had a chance to pull even but LadyRed Rebels’ junior midfielderPreston Robinette fired an errantfree kick wide of the net in the
24th minute.Bearden extended its advan-
tage to 2-0 in the 33rd minute on agoal from Casey Riemer. PiperWells picked up an assist on thematch’s second marker.
“”They are a fantastic team,”Riemer said of Maryville. “We werecalm and we came in ready to play.
“This was our first game of theyear and we came out and we didwhat we had to do. Taylor scoringthat first goal was big and KayLeewas great.
“She’s worked really hard andshe made some big saves for ustonight. I thought the [ball] thatshe hit over the net was going in.”
Riemer gave the Lady Bulldogsa 3-0 lead in the 63rd minute whenshe shot the ball into an empty netwhen she caught Broyles out ofposition.
Frizen made it 4-0 approximate-ly three minutes later.
Wentz, who was amazing allnight, lost her shutout whenMaryville’s Emma Rice scored inthe 76th minute.
Wentz sparkled but she wasquick to credit her teammates forher victory between the goalposts.
“I couldn’t have done this with-out the help of my defense, mid-fielders and forwards,” she said.“My defense and midfielders weregreat,” she said. “And our for-

wards have really pushed me inpractice this year.”
Radcliffe made some tacticalchanges late and took the blamefor Wentz surrendering the latemarker.
“If I hadn’t taken Casey off thefield, KayLee would have probablygotten the shutout because Caseywas being man marked,” Radcliffesaid. “But she was banged up andshe needed a little rest.”
The Lady Ads, who reached theClass AAA Championship matchin the Midstate and fell toBrentwood in a five-set thriller,started fast and opened a 13-6lead in the opening set against theLady Irish, who was a Class AAState semifinalist last year.
Farragut cruised in the firstgame before Catholic bouncedback.

and our defensive line disruptedthe things that LivingstonAcademy tried to do.”
CAK’s defense contributed asafety.
Friday night was historic forthe Concord Christian Lions. TheLions took the field for the firsttime as a varsity team.
Concord Christian will haveanother monumental game nextweek. The Lions will host SaleCreek at Bob Leonard Park inFarragut.
Despite the 45-7 loss at Grace
Baptist in Chattanooga, ConcordChristian coach Troy Flemingwas upbeat.
“I wanted to see consistency,eagerness to play and tough-ness,” said Fleming, a formerTennessee and NFL runningback. “I saw all three of thosethings and I was really pleasedwith the way that our kidsimproved throughout the game.”
Concord Christian’s NathanDeets forever etched his namesinto the Lions’ record book whenhe scored the school’s first-evertouchdown on a 30-yard sweepplay.
“That was a beautiful run,”
Fleming said.The coach noted that he’s look-
ing forward to this week’s homeopener against the Panthers.
“Somebody’s going to get theirfirst win,” Fleming said.
Meanwhile, Webb’s season gotoff to a rough start at Alcoa.
The Tornadoes (1-0) had fivedifferent players score touch-downs against the three-timedefending Division II-A StateChampions.
The Spartans moved the ballwell throughout the first half anddrove the ball deep into Alcoaterritory at one point. The Webbdrive, however, stalled just inside
the Tornado 25-yard line.Webb, which trailed 14-0 at
halftime, got four of its six firstdowns on the game’s openingdrive, which ended when Alcoaknocked Hunter Green’s poten-tial touchdown pass to AndrewCraig.
“We drove the ball down to the[Alcoa] 25 and we couldn’tscore,” Spartans’ coach DavidMeske said. “When you drive theball that deep, you have to score.
“We had some chances but wecouldn’t make the plays when wehad to make them. When we canmake those plays, we’ll be a goodfootball team.”
Slow starts are nothing new forthe Spartans. Webb started 0-2last year, so Meske, Webb’s long-time coach, wasn’t discouraged.
“We have a week off, so thatwill give us some [extra] time tolook at the film and correct ourmistakes,” Meske said. “We’vebeen going at it hard since themiddle of July, so the week offwill give us some time to rest.
“Last year, we lost to Maryvilleand Baylor. We started 0-2 but we came back and had a goodseason.”
Hardin Valley had its hopesdashed when quarterback MihirBarot’s passed sailed past areceiver with 50.9 seconds left toplay. It was a long punt return byThomas Clay that gave the Hawksa chance to break a seven-gamelosing streak to West High, theonly constant opponent on HVA’sschedule.
“We made some mistakes butwe still had a chance to win thisgame, said Hawks’ running backAaron Dykes, who scored atouchdown to give the Hawks a12-9 lead late in the third quar-ter. “That just shows you whatkind of heart that this team has.
“We’re never out of a game.”The Rebels took a 2-0 lead on a
safety with the Hawks werepenalized for holding with 4 min-utes, 43 seconds remaining inthe opening quarter.
Hardin Valley would answerearly in the second quarter whenTim Frizzell, a 2014 all-region per-former, scored on a 7-yard run togive the Hawks a 6-2 lead with11:15 remaining in the first half.Frizzell’s TD gave HVA its first-
ever lead over the Rebels. ButWest blocked the ensuing extrapoint attempt.
But that advantage was short-lived despite a stellar perform-ance from the Hawks’ defense.
“Our defense played welltonight,” Jones said.
Jeff Harig, West High’s newhead coach, was also impressedwith Hardin Valley’s defense.
“We couldn’t handle their pres-sure most of the night,” said Harig,who saw his team regain the leadwhen junior Jermaine Buchannonreturned a punt 67 yards to theend zone with 2:20 remaining untilhalftime to make the score 9-7.
After the break, the Hawksdominated the third quarter.Hardin Valley, which rushed forover 200 yards including 106 inthe third stanza, took a 12-9 leadlate in the frame on a 25-yardscamper by Dykes, who finishedwith 89 yards on 10 carries.
Dykes might’ve scored but hewasted little time crediting histeammates.
“That wouldn’t have happenedwithout our offensive line,” hesaid. “They did their job.
HVA took a 15-9 lead early in thefinal frame when Andrew Foster

kicked a 34-yard field goal.West closed the scoring mid-
way through the fourth quarterwhen quarterback Zach Harsheyconnected with De’Erik Elderfrom 25 yards out. Sophomore
Caleb Norris added the game-winning extra point.
The final drive, which con-sumed 73 yards, was prolongedon a big 27-yard reception bysophomore Devonte Patrick, who
had 40 yards on 14 carries.“We won this game because we
had heart,” Patrick said. “Thistook a whole lot of heart and inthe end, we played like StateChampions.”

Farragut’s big halftime leadmeant that the game was playedwith a running clock. The lop-sided halftime margin alsoenabled some Admirals’ reservesto get some playing time.
“It was good to get those kids
some playing time and that’salways good,” Courtney said.“They work so hard every day inpractice.”
Running back Amon Johnsonextended Farragut’s advantage to49-0 with 3:23 left to play in thethird frame.
The Panthers, who made a fewbig plays throughout the night buthad seven turnovers, finally got onthe scoreboard in the game’s wan-ing seconds when Brandon Smith
had a scoring run.The Admirals were dominant
and Friday night’s victory repre-sented Farragut’s first win in anopener since 2009. Courtneyhopes that it’s the first of manythis year.
“I hope this win will give usconfidence because it shows thatif you work hard, good things willhappen for you.”
